Organization description: SACE provides an extensive range of support services for people who experience sexual violence, including: crisis support, counselling, court support, and advocacy. We also aim to foster prevention of sexual violence through direct public education and advisory consultation with groups and agencies undertaking their own prevention efforts.

Engaging Men and Boys Work: SACE provide counselling services for men healing from sexual violence, offers a men’s group (trans-inclusive) and serves male and masculine clients on an individual basis. Topics covered include masculinity, shame & anger and mental health.

To help our next generation of men and masculine folk learn more about positive masculinities, healthy relationships, consent and sexual health, SACE offer WiseGuyz, a gender-transformative healthy relationships program for mid-adolescent boys and masculine youth that aims to reduce sexual and dating violence, improve mental and sexual health, and decrease homophobic attitudes by creating a safer space to critically examine and deconstruct conventional masculine norms.
